Webb, appearing on "Today" and speaking with Matt Lauer, talked about her BCS title game experience and whether she had any problems with what Musburger said.

“I think the media has been really unfair to [Brent Musburger]," Webb said. "If he would’ve said something along the line that we were hot or sexy or made any derogatory statements like that, I think that would’ve been a little bit different, but the fact that he said that we were beautiful and gorgeous, I don’t see why any woman wouldn’t be flattered by that."

"Have been asked on focus on @_KatherineWebb in BCS: We always try to capture interesting storylines and the relationship between an Auburn grad who is Miss Alabama and the current Alabama quarterback certainly met that test. However, we apologize that the commentary in this instance went too far and Brent understands that," ESPN's Mike Soltys posted on Twitter.

Webb's popularity continues to surge on Twitter. She has 227,017 followers as of 11:40 am ET on Wednesday.
